Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007126987A2] The present invention relates to an apparatus and methods of testing and predicting a patient's response to a treatment for a disease. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to an apparatus and methods of testing and predicting a patient's chemosensitivity before the patient begins chemotherapy. The invention may include the steps of generating mass spectra data from samples taken from a population that responds to a treatment of a disease, generating mass spectra data from samples taken from a population that does not respond to the same treatment of the disease, and comparing the two sets of data. The presence or non-presence of a peak in the compared data may be markers indicating the likelihood of response to the treatment of the disease.
